Default The ugly (Bryopsis)

So....bryopsis...so many different kinds, Some say to raise your mag and some say to get lettuce nudies. Well, let me tell you that I have tried everything and IT'S NOT WORKING!

Now, I have taken out all the rocks and dipped them in peroxide and so far it looks promising, I got my fingers crossed and if this doesn't work then I'll be setting up a new tank to transfer everything over and re-set the dt.

Peroxide has worked well for me, just time consuming. I've removed rocks and basted and that did it long term. Just blasted some with yesterday's water change, slowly chipping away it it.

Did you use Tech M by Kent Marine?

Its not the magnesium that kills off bryopsis, it's a secret ingredient in the tech m recipe that seems to do it.
